The New Education Policy (NEP) organized a 15-day skill development programme for female students at Udhampur's Government College for Women at the Horticulture Department. The newly implemented policy involves training young women in food processing and promoting self-reliance and entrepreneurship by teaching them to transform agricultural produce into marketable products.
The skilling program in Udhampur aimed to empower girls with practical skills to secure employment or start their own businesses. Over 17 fifth-semester chemistry students participated in workshops on food preservation and digital literacy. The program aimed to bridge the gender gap in employment and promote greater economic participation of women in rural and underserved areas, focusing on girl's education and skill development.
Brij Vilav Gupta, the Chief of the Horticulture Department, Udhampur, mentioned "We had received a request from the principal of the Government College of Women, Udhampur, that there were a few girls who were B.Sc. Honours Chemistry under NEP and they wanted to understand the horticulture and agriculture sector. 17 girls from chemistry majors and seven to eight girls from computer sciences came here. The government wants the students to learn about new schemes and become independent and self-reliant."
